Casual Hot Tub Parties

People are continually looking for fun, easy and relaxing ways of having a party or other gathering for their friends. Obviously, there are a whole host of ways in which a nice, fun party can be organized for friend and family.

Some people are particularly fond of hosting get-togethers and parties around swimming pools and hot tubs. Indeed, a hot tub party can be a most enjoyable and relaxing way of spending time with friends and family.

The first point to consider when contemplating pulling together a casual hot tub party is who should be on your invitation list. In the grand scheme of things, when it comes to a casual hot tub party, it is likely best and most appropriate to invite those people who you actually do know well.

There is a level of intimacy associated with a casual hot tub party -- and we are not speaking of a romantic style gathering at this juncture. Rather, by the very nature of a hot tub party, men and women will be in a state of attire -- swim wear -- that can make strangers uncomfortable. ...
... Thus, again, when contemplating the guest list for a hot tub party, it is best to include only those friends and family members who you are close with. Likewise, your guests will be more comfortable if they generally know the other guests at the party. In the end, you will want your guests to be comfortable. Uneasy guests make for an uncomfortable party.

Another point to consider when contemplating pulling together a casual hot tub party is the need to have other activities available for some of your party guests. No matter what combination of people you invite to a casual hot tub party, there will always be some guests who simply do not want to sit in a hot tub at a social gathering. Thus, in order to be a good host or hostess, it is important for you to have other activities at a casual hot tub gathering for this group of guests. And, by activities, you can merely set up something as simple as a comfortable area in which your guests not interested in the hot tub can sit and visit in a relaxed manner.

Of course, as a final note, when it comes to a hot tub party, keep items made of glass to a minimum. You could invest in some accessories. Serve beverages in plastic tumblers, for example. And serve food on plastic or even heavy duty paper plates. One broken glass in or near a hot tub truly can bring a party to a grinding halt.
